I totally agree. I feel like the effect it's going to have on Darcy is just as bad - Darcy had an identity and then was suddenly forced to share it.
Also, I get wanting to give your kids 'honour' names for family members. My first name is an honour name. I go by my middle name because whilst it's nice to honour a family member, I am not that family member and I want to be my own person. I feel like Darcy and Pearl don't really get that, and I'm sure there's other women in Louise/Liam's lives that they could have chosen to honour instead.
Off topic slightly but related to the above point.
I’m four months pregnant and my baby boy is having a fully honoured name after mine and my partner’s Grandads. His first name will be my (living) Grandad’s name - Grandad is 90 and my absolute hero. He’s named after his dad, and so on and so on.
The second name is my parents’ Grandads who I was fortunate enough to meet and love (fortunately they share the name!) and the third name is my partner’s Grandad - which my partner and his dad also have as their middle names.
Do you think the massive age difference, and the fact the second two people being honoured are no longer with us, will help our boy find his own identity?
I’m just named my name because my parents liked it and I’ve always wanted a story / a namesake so that explains my choice but your point does make sense and I’m a little concerned now.
